replace forward slash (/)

bonekrusher · March 18th, 2010, 10:21 AM

Hi,

I am getting this error in Saxon when trying to replace a forward slash (/)

Code:

FORX0004: Invalid replacement string in replace(): \ character must be followed by \ or $

This is the line throwing the error:

Code:

<xsl:value-of select="replace('../../temp', '../../', 'c:/newfolder/' )"/>

Do I need to escape the forward slash?

Thanks,

It's telling you there's a backslash in the replacement string, and it seems unlikely it would tell you that if there isn't. Are you sure the code you have shown is the code you are executing?

Thanks Michael. I'll need to need to hunt this down.
